Monday, 13 April, 2020

Drivers needing a strong ad reliable truck have been turning to the Ram 2500 for years. The team here at Michigan City Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram would like you to know that we have multiple incentives and models of this popular truck in stock. Like most vehicles, the Ram 2500 is available in several different variations, or trim levels, in order to help serve as many drivers as possible. Here, we would like to look at two of the Ram 2500 trims, known as the Tradesman and Laramie.

The Tradesman is the entry-level model in this lineup. Many drivers in the Merrillville, IN area will find this trim has everything they need. It comes standard with great features, like Bluetooth, a USB port, and 17-inch steel wheels. You'll find a front bench seat and durable vinyl upholstery inside the cabin here.

You can also check out the popular Laramie trim. This pickup truck is a tad more luxurious, adding features like a leather-wrapped steering wheel as well as heated and ventilated front seats. Dual-zone automatic climate control can help make your drives around Merrillville more comfortable.

The Laramie trim is going to give you many more high-tech features inside of the cab. This model ups its touchscreen size to 8.4-inches. You can also use your smartphone with the infotainment system here, thanks to the standard Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Rounding out tech upgrades that you will find in this model is a 10-speaker premium audio system.

One thing that these two trims have in common is their standard engine. Pop the hood of either model and you'll discover a 6.4-Liter V8 engine that is ready to make 410-horsepower and 429 pound-feet of torque. For this engine, Ram has given this truck an eight-speed automatic. Either trim also can be had with a turbocharged 6.7-Liter diesel engine. With this, your Ram 2500 can make 370-horsepower and 850 pound-feet of torque. It works with a six-speed automatic transmission.
